• "On the move" Understanding pastoralism in Ethiopia
  (Published by PCAE, Addis Ababa, 2006)
  

Celebrating 10 years since the Pastoral Concern Association Ethiopia (PCAE) was founded in 1995

In this beautifully illustrated book, the PCAE has given both Somali and Boran pastoralists an opportunity to to tell readers about pastoralism in their own words - the way of life, the challenge faced by pastoralists, the opportunities seen for their future. It celebrates pastoralism as a viable way of life.
